I am taking my girl to the airport this morning so she can spend some time with her Grandma Bubbles in Sarasota, Florida for a couple of days.

She is absurdly giddy at being an unaccompanied minor in an airport...perhaps she thinks the movie will come to life?

After spending some quality time with my mom, they are driving to Orlando on Monday where she will connect with my brother and his family at the house of the mouse. She will hang with them until Thursday and then head back home.

It's been a fun summer for Bella. She has had some excellent adventures. This week, a lot of her friends are heading off to college; I know she is going to miss them. Her junior year in high school awaits her on September 9. I am glad she had a summer to decompress before the cycle of homework, quizzes, research papers, and tests takes over. You are only a teen once, I say enjoy it with gusto.

I'd like to visit Grandma Bubbles. I'd like to have a Grandma Bubbles. Maybe I'll settle for just a bottle of bubbles ... you know ... the kind you blow all over the place and then your dog slips on the hardwood floor because it's now covered in bubble slime? :)

My mama would LOVE you! Book a flight. She loves to read and could be a first look as you write more and more amazing books!
